[gentoo-user] VMware and kernel 2.6.0test8

2003-11-07 Thread Nathaniel
I installed vmware from portage.  I then ran vmware-config.pl.  It built
the modules fine, gave me no errors.  Told me to run vmware so I did.
When I do I get the error:

VMware Workstation is installed, but it has not been (correctly)
configured for your running kernel.  To (re-)configure it, your system
administrator must find and run vmware-config.pl.  For more
information, please read file INSTALL in the VMware Workstation
documentation directory.

What gives?  The modules load fine in the kernel.  Anyone?

Theconfig script sometimes forgets to remove a not_configured file  
somewhere in /opt/vmware. Delete it, and all will be fine I think.

I was not able to find any such file.

It is in /etc/vmware/not_configured.  Thanks!

Make sure you run /opt/vmware/bin/vmware-config.pl and not
vmware-config.pl.  Older installs of vmware were a bit careless at some
point and there can be old files in /usr/bin that dont match the current
install and create this error.
